Vader1 send me a PM because he had realized the different alignment of brushing between movement bridges. I studied his pics and confirmed the misalignment. I honestly had not noticed it.
This difference is little but noticeable and didn't exist in first Clone1 movement of PAM 372. You can see it in the pic published by vader1
But as commented by vader 1 new batch of Clone2 has more accurate engravings on bridges
I think new batch Clone2 movements are overall more accurate, despite the brushing alignment difference.
Vader1 also tell me that Crown logo was a bit thicker which I have already noticed (it is even a bit less deep)
Below pic shows the difference between GEN and REP logos

I don't think mine has the inaccurate brushing, but I can't really tell. I think it's slightly off, but noticeable.
You can look at pics here:

Thanks silverclaw for the comment and opinion
Yes I have just seen your nice pics and your fantastic review. Please read my comments there
Regarding the misalignment of your brushing, you are right yours is much better than the rep included in this thread. There is some misalignment but you would need enlarged pics and Photoshop to prove it.
Therefore as many times in replicas, this matter is hit and miss
Thanks
